4 MARKET OVERVIEW Overall, Hong Kong s employment market in 2013 performed steadily across most industries. Employers continued to hire, albeit with an enhanced focus on ensuring they found the very best person for the job. There was particular investment in revenue-generating roles especially across the services sector as companies focused on getting their sales teams right. The financial services sector also experienced a strengthening in confidence, particularly at the mid tier level. A steady recruitment market is anticipated for 2014, with the majority of companies and hiring managers fairly optimistic. The recruitment market continues to become more competitive and the retention and attraction of high performers remains a key challenge for employers. Great candidates are hard to find and the best talent will have multiple job opportunities. Companies will therefore need to work on making the recruitment process as efficient as possible and balancing the interview process in terms of being thorough and testing potential employees in a relevant way, while moving quickly to secure good talent. With some signs of slight growth in the US and the UK economies, this is filtering through to the local market given the significant number of multinational companies operating in Hong Kong. If growth offshore continues to improve it will have a positive impact on hiring in In terms of China, growth rates have slowed slightly but are still considerably ahead of Western countries and many global firms are focused on penetrating this market as consumer spending remains high. This is fuelling industrial production and headcount in Hong Kong is likely to continue to grow accordingly. While Hong Kong continues to attract companies looking to establish a presence and launch into the Asia region, in part due to the ease with which companies can set up and do business, others are moving their head offices to Shanghai and Singapore. Typically, the more established companies are looking at where else is available and Hong Kong will need to compete by positioning itself as attractive a destination as possible. However, Hong Kong remains a key hub for global companies looking to enter the China region, and talent continues to be in short supply. The Information Technology and digital space continues to develop at a fast pace due to the evolution of technology social media, web applications, smart phones and tablets. Companies are developing applications in-house however the skills and expertise in the market lags as technology grows faster than the pool of talent with the skills to deliver on it. In light of this there is an extremely high requirement for Application Developers, particularly in commercial technology and banking technology, as well as UI/UX Designers for smart phones, tablets and web applications. From a regional perspective, while Hong Kong is a relatively mature market there is room for development within local companies based in the Kowloon/New Territories area that are looking to expand. Retention of best performers continues to be the main hurdle for organisations in Hong Kong to overcome, as evidenced by the average tenure of professionals in a role being one to two years. Employee benefits remain important for staff retention while hiring managers will need to make sure the interview process is as strong as possible and strikes the balance between testing people and acting quickly to secure talented professionals. As an employment market, Hong Kong remains somewhat immature with regards to employee benefits the prime motivator used is money and companies in Hong Kong have not grasped the importance of non-financial benefits such as workplace flexibility to the extent employers in more developed regions have. While the Hong Kong recruitment market will be good throughout 2014 it will be important for employers and employees to be at the top of their game, whether looking for a new job or hiring/retaining staff. Employers with the best hiring strategy will be the most successful while the most prepared and focused jobseekers will get the best opportunities. Hong Kong is known to be a competitive and fair market and one that rewards great performance so hiring employers not up to scratch will be beaten by competitors while unprepared jobseekers not at the top of their game will miss out on the best opportunities. Recruitment is expected to be active in 2014 in a number of areas including retail, as ongoing consumer spending and international retailers setting up new Asia headquarters creates demand for skilled retail staff. Consumer spending activity is also resulting in the need for experienced sales professionals across all industries, especially those with experience working in China. Meanwhile, the banking sector has improved and this has led to hiring within mid tier financial institutions setting up in Hong Kong, primarily small to medium sized international banks. Areas where talent is hard to find include compliance, audit and risk while within retail banking experienced Relationship Managers are in short supply. Finance 4

Hong Kong-based professionals are also in demand within real estate as growth is also strong in this sector, with many local and global developers operating in China creating numerous transactions that involve Hong Kong listed firms. Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) professionals are highly soughtafter as many companies look to hire qualified professionals to work as business partners providing analysis and insights on opportunities for business growth in Asia. Financial Accountants are required within global businesses for regulatory and financial reporting and to ensure compliance with local listing requirements. Local treasury skills are in demand, coupled with the ability to build relationships with local and emerging banks. Over the next 12 months, recruitment for finance professionals in Hong Kong is expected to remain positive with Hong Kong remaining a key hub for global companies looking to enter the China region, and talent continues to be in short supply. The United States market is showing signs of growth, businesses are now more optimistic about the future compared with 12 months ago and as unemployment decreases in the United States and the United Kingdom, employers in Asia are confident about hiring. Growth rates in China have slowed slightly but are still considerably ahead of Western countries and many global firms are focused on penetrating this market as consumer spending remains high. This is fuelling industrial production and headcount is likely to continue to grow accordingly. FP&A and financial accounting talent is expected to continue to be in demand. Mid-sized service providers, retailers and business-toconsumer (B2C) companies are expanding their regional business operations based out of Hong Kong and are expected to strengthen accounting and internal control teams in There will be an increased requirement for internal audit and financial control staff as many companies look for possible growth avenues, including initial public offering (IPO).

20 FINANCIAL SERVICES MARKET ANALYSIS RECRUITMENT ACTIVITY Strength of current hiring activity compared to the last 12 months Market observations: Stronger (10%) Slightly stronger (27%) Steady (40%) Slightly weaker (15%) Weaker (8%) With steady economic recovery in the US and the debt crisis in Europe stabilising, there is a more positive outlook for Hong Kong s financial services industry. The local banking sector has maintained healthy growth over the last 12 months characterised by steady credit expansion and more favourable liquidity conditions. The nature of Hong Kong s banking system is changing rapidly as banks increase their China-related lending and Hong Kong companies derive an increasing part of their business from China. Banks in Hong Kong will experience some growth in 2014, as with strong capital positions by international standards and sound asset quality, they will be well placed to meet the new capital requirements under the Basel III framework. To ensure these requirements are met corporate governance experts continue to be in high demand. The highest demand for financial services talent will be within risk and compliance, internal audit and governance as banks further develop controls and specific areas like anti-money laundering (AML) and financial crime units in response to local and global regulatory changes. In Hong Kong, Chinese institutions are pushing into the private banking market and competition for private bankers has intensified. Moreover, Hong Kong s private banking industry has seen robust growth in the last couple of years and this is set to continue. Higher recruitment activity is also being seen across a number of rating agencies looking to expand their Asia operations. Ratings agencies have been expanding their corporate ratings teams since the increased number of originated debt capital markets transactions and bond issuances in Asia Pacific in the first half of These firms have hired Analyst to VP level professionals coming from investment banking division (IBD), credit research and ratings advisory backgrounds with fluent to native level Mandarin. A continuous demand is expected for Ratings Analysts during 2014 and a shift of mindset of IBD professionals to move to fixed income and credit analyst roles. There is an increase in hiring activity for audit professionals, particularly Information Technology (IT) audit roles, within global markets, corporate banking and retail banking businesses. These are mostly replacement hires for professionals that have moved internally to either a compliance or operational risk management role. Increased initial public offering (IPO) activity has created high demand for associate level originators in investment banking. There will also be an increase in hiring for senior level IBD and research roles as firms look to up-skill talent. Relationship Managers in banks and non-banking financial institutions, Large Corporate Relationship Managers and research professionals on the buy-side and sell-side at the associate and vice president level are also in demand. Hiring activity levels are likely to increase across Chinese banks and language proficiency in Cantonese, Mandarin and English will be essential for financial services professionals in Hong Kong. Demand is expected for Credit Risk Analysts and Equity Compliance Managers with experience with both Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) and securities futures commission (SFC) regulators.

35 HUMAN RESOURCES MARKET ANALYSIS RECRUITMENT ACTIVITY Strength of current hiring activity compared to the last 12 months Market observations: Stronger (11%) Slightly stronger (24%) Steady (50%) Slightly weaker (13%) Weaker (2%) Overall, hiring activity for human resources (HR) professionals in Hong Kong is strong. The Employee Value Proposition holds a lot of interest across all sectors and from a HR perspective, this means that higher employee engagement is imperative, effective leaders must be identified and a high performing culture needs to be created and maintained. Employers within the retail, manufacturing as well as software and services sectors have the strongest demand for HR talent as staff development and talent management is increasingly important in these businesses. HR Managers are in particularly high demand as organisations look to develop this function and look to identify a more strategically minded HR Manager. Learning and Development professionals are also in demand as companies are looking to create a more engaged and productive workforce. Plenty of businesses are re-investing in this function, recognising the need to invest in their people. Inline with attracting the best talent is the importance of brand recognition and over the last 12 months, a lot of companies have put an increased focus on this. With a number of global organisations creating Centres of Excellence to help align international business, more Learning and Development Managers are required to lead global programs. This provides the opportunity for individuals to take on a more global remit, whereas previously these professionals may only have gained experience on a regional, Asia Pacific level. As a consequence of the global financial crisis, there is an increased emphasis across all sectors to achieve the maximum cost efficiency for every role. This has translated into a strong demand for in-house HR to take on a more proactive function, with HR business partners being particularly sought-after. Compensation & Benefits Specialists will be in demand in the coming year as companies seek advice on remuneration packages and restructure benefits policies to strengthen their attraction and retention strategies. Generalist HR candidates will be in demand as companies expand across Asia, creating opportunities for businesses with Hong Kongbased headquarters. As companies look to globalise, there will be a demand for professionals proficient in English and/or Chinese, as well as talent who have worked in multiple countries. Global mobility professionals are also needed as employers look at utilising internal talent and focus on restructuring packages to allow employees from abroad to look at opportunities based in Hong Kong and vice versa. Demand for HR contractors across all sectors is anticipated to increase as some companies struggle to secure permanent headcount. Talent Acquisition Managers are also sought-after as more employers look to attract and retain their best people. Organisations are more focused on creating a supportive work environment, positive work culture and work-life balance. Employers are more focused on developing future leaders and improving the level of staff retention. Companies across all sectors, especially financial services and legal, will seek high calibre HR Managers and Directors who can strategically drive and evolve their HR function from an operational and administrative set up to a more strategic and business aligned function. There is a definite focus from companies looking to identify individuals who demonstrate a long term commitment to the organisation and focus on long term career progression.
